MIRACULOUS: A 4-Week Series from the Gospels on Jesus' Miracles.
SERIES OVERVIEW:
When we visit an aquarium, we find a whole world filled with sea creatures, plants, and more. Some of the discoveries we've made about what lives underwater can seem almost like a miracle. But it's not just under the sea where miracles happen—Jesus used water in some of his most well-known miracles! In this 4-week series, kids will learn about some of the incredible miracles Jesus performed to help people grow closer to God. As they do, they'll learn how Jesus does everything out of love, calls us to follow him, knows what we need, and most of all, that Jesus can do anything!

Tartu Academic Male (TAM) Choir
All are welcome to listen to the wonderful music of the Tartu Academic Male Choir.
They will be visiting Salisbury, MD on August 18th beginning with a welcoming event by the Tartu Pedestrian Bridge downtown at 1pm.
Their evening concert at Asbury United Methodist Church will be in the Sanctuary at 5:30pm.
Please read below for more information on the TAM Choir:
Tartu Academic Male Choir - 113 years of male choir
Being the oldest male choir to have been continuously singing since the year 1912 (113 years ago), Tartu Academic Male Choir has established its honorable place in Estonian history and choir singing. The everlasting spirit has withstood all the difficulties the history has thrown on its way.
Tartu Academic Male Choir (TAM) is the oldest active men’s chorus in Estonia. Since being established in 1912 it has been a pillar of culture during the brighter, as well as the darker times of the country’s history and has played a major role in developing and preserving male voice choir music. The 113 years of servitude has brought joy to thousands of listeners home and away, bringing the choir numerous high awards from different competitions. TAM has been the highest rated male voice choir in Estonia for the last 10 years (according to the local male voice choirs’ contest). The choir’s repertoire comprises very diverse music – classical male voice choir pieces play an important role, but contemporary music and folk music arrangements are also some of the favourites. The choir’s most beloved composers are probably maestros Veljo Tormis and Gustav Ernesaks, but maestro Alo Ritsing who has also stood in front of the choir for more than 50 years can not be left unnoticed – his music has a special place in TAM’s heart. A spark can also be seen in the singers’ eyes when opera choirs are being performed. During the years, many conductors have worked with the choir and as of now, the responsibility lies on the shoulders of Roland Viilukas, who started as a chief conductor only a year ago. Together with Made Ritsing, they stand for the high artistic level of the Tartu Academic Male Voice Choir.
